“These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” John 15:11
Think about Jesus’ joy for a moment. He ever lives to intercede for us; Jesus lives so that we can be saved to the uttermost. This is Jesus’ purpose and this is His joy! Jesus’ life of service makes Him the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven and we now have and are one with His joy. We now have Jesus’ joy of serving, which allows God to produce much righteous fruit through us. This glorifies God and this allows our joy to be full. It’s better to give than receive, and giving is the only way that we are able to have full joy, so Jesus gave us His joy of giving! We have the ability to ask as Jesus asks, and receive as He receives! We have the ability to serve others as Jesus serves. Look in the Book of Acts, the believers had the gift of healing, just as Jesus had the gift, and God performed miracles through them, just as He did through Jesus. They had visions, prophecies, and they did many of the same works that Jesus did. Jesus never said that we wouldn’t be used by God to do the things that He did; He actually said that if we believe than we would be used. This is the joy that we now have within us! There is a joy in serving, and we have the joy of the greatest servant of all, Jesus!
Finally, the Words that Jesus spoke so that we may have His joy can be found in John 15. If we keep His commandments than we will abide in God’s love, as He abides in God’s love, and this is His commandment, that we love one another. Remember what Jesus proclaimed, that we could only produce fruit because of Him. Jesus knew that we must love, so be of full joy, because our Lord and Savior, the Great I Am, is right here and one with us causing us to love. “But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.” 1 Thessalonians 4:9 We have Jesus as our Vine and His love flows through us allowing us to bear much fruit, and we have God pruning away anything that would hinder us from loving, and as we mature in Him, we love more and more and more! That is why we have full joy; because we can’t help but to love one another! We are born of Love; the Incorruptible Seed of God, Who is Love, has bore us! We are one with Love, the Temples of Love, and member of Loves body and of His flesh! We have the mind of Love and the Spirit of Love abides and remains within us. And if there is anything that isn’t Love within us, God prunes it out! That is simply awesome Truth, Truth that brings full joy that remains in us! Our Father knows everything that we need, and He has made us one with Him through Christ so that He can do everything for us!
